Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Andrew,

I am planning to run an android mobile apps programming unit next term with my Year 10 class.

I haven't got anything up and running yet.

I did the workshop that Swinburne are offering at the moment last year.
Like most things if you don't use it straight away, you forget (like I have).

I'm hoping to look for those resources again. I know it was all on the Georgia Tech website.

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Andrew,

I am planning to run an android mobile apps programming unit next term with my Year 10 class.

I haven't got anything up and running yet.

I did the workshop that Swinburne are offering at the moment last year.
Like most things if you don't use it straight away, you forget (like I have).

I'm hoping to look for those resources again. I know it was all on the Georgia Tech website.

Hi All,

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course. We use a program that connects to an emulator.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

Hi All,

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course. We use a program that connects to an emulator.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Emma
We have been trying to find the App Inventor but it appears to be unaccessible. Do you know where we might be able to find it?

Hi Andrew,

I am planning to run an android mobile apps programming unit next term with my Year 10 class.

I haven't got anything up and running yet.

I did the workshop that Swinburne are offering at the moment last year.
Like most things if you don't use it straight away, you forget (like I have).

I'm hoping to look for those resources again. I know it was all on the Georgia Tech website.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Gordon,

I have access to the App Inventor via Google - you do need a Google account which is not too much of a problem for many of the students.
http://appinventor.mit.edu/

>From here you need to have a Gmail account. For students who don't want to keep the Gmail account, I have asked them to tell me their gmail account and password - so they do not need to worry about leaning it. But that was for my students - you may not want to do this.

Hope this helps

Hi Emma
We have been trying to find the App Inventor but it appears to be unaccessible. Do you know where we might be able to find it?

Cheers

Hi All,

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course. We use a program that connects to an emulator.

Hi Andrew,

I am planning to run an android mobile apps programming unit next term with my Year 10 class.

I haven't got anything up and running yet.

I did the workshop that Swinburne are offering at the moment last year.
Like most things if you don't use it straight away, you forget (like I have).

I'm hoping to look for those resources again. I know it was all on the Georgia Tech website.

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

Hi Gordon,

I have access to the App Inventor via Google - you do need a Google account which is not too much of a problem for many of the students.
http://appinventor.mit.edu/

>From here you need to have a Gmail account. For students who don't want to keep the Gmail account, I have asked them to tell me their gmail account and password - so they do not need to worry about leaning it. But that was for my students - you may not want to do this.

Hope this helps

Hi Emma
We have been trying to find the App Inventor but it appears to be unaccessible. Do you know where we might be able to find it?

Hi All,

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course. We use a program that connects to an emulator.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Andrew,

I am planning to run an android mobile apps programming unit next term with my Year 10 class.

I haven't got anything up and running yet.

I did the workshop that Swinburne are offering at the moment last year.
Like most things if you don't use it straight away, you forget (like I have).

I'm hoping to look for those resources again. I know it was all on the Georgia Tech website.

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

Hi Emma
We have been trying to find the App Inventor but it appears to be unaccessible. Do you know where we might be able to find it?

Cheers
Gordon

Hi All,

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course. We use a program that connects to an emulator.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Andrew,

I am planning to run an android mobile apps programming unit next term with my Year 10 class.

I haven't got anything up and running yet.

I did the workshop that Swinburne are offering at the moment last year.
Like most things if you don't use it straight away, you forget (like I have).

I'm hoping to look for those resources again. I know it was all on the Georgia Tech website.

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

Hi Gordon,

I have access to the App Inventor via Google - you do need a Google account which is not too much of a problem for many of the students.
http://appinventor.mit.edu/

>From here you need to have a Gmail account. For students who don't want to keep the Gmail account, I have asked them to tell me their gmail account and password - so they do not need to worry about leaning it. But that was for my students - you may not want to do this.

Hope this helps

Hi Gordon,

I have access to the App Inventor via Google - you do need a Google account which is not too much of a problem for many of the students.
http://appinventor.mit.edu/

>From here you need to have a Gmail account. For students who don't want to keep the Gmail account, I have asked them to tell me their gmail account and password - so they do not need to worry about leaning it. But that was for my students - you may not want to do this.

Hope this helps

Hi Emma
We have been trying to find the App Inventor but it appears to be unaccessible. Do you know where we might be able to find it?

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Andrew,

I am planning to run an android mobile apps programming unit next term with my Year 10 class.

I haven't got anything up and running yet.

I did the workshop that Swinburne are offering at the moment last year.
Like most things if you don't use it straight away, you forget (like I have).

I'm hoping to look for those resources again. I know it was all on the Georgia Tech website.

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

Hi All,

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course. We use a program that connects to an emulator.

Hi Emma
We have been trying to find the App Inventor but it appears to be unaccessible. Do you know where we might be able to find it?

Cheers

Hi All,

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course. We use a program that connects to an emulator.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Gordon,

I have access to the App Inventor via Google - you do need a Google account which is not too much of a problem for many of the students.
http://appinventor.mit.edu/

>From here you need to have a Gmail account. For students who don't want to keep the Gmail account, I have asked them to tell me their gmail account and password - so they do not need to worry about leaning it. But that was for my students - you may not want to do this.

Hope this helps

Hi,

I plan to run App Inventor and Android SDK (just placing controls on the emulator and getting them to work).
I am using Windows. You will strugle to get App Inventor to work with more complicated tasks that some students will want to do.

App Inventor is a great introduction to mobile apps.

To do iphone apps , I have only seen Flashbuilder do this on Windows but I think there is some others. In the future you will probably see products that easily convert from one platform to another.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

Hi Andrew,

I am planning to run an android mobile apps programming unit next term with my Year 10 class.

I haven't got anything up and running yet.

I did the workshop that Swinburne are offering at the moment last year.
Like most things if you don't use it straight away, you forget (like I have).

I'm hoping to look for those resources again. I know it was all on the Georgia Tech website.

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

Hi All,

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course. We use a program that connects to an emulator.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Emma
We have been trying to find the App Inventor but it appears to be unaccessible. Do you know where we might be able to find it?

Hi Gordon,

I have access to the App Inventor via Google - you do need a Google account which is not too much of a problem for many of the students.
http://appinventor.mit.edu/

>From here you need to have a Gmail account. For students who don't want to keep the Gmail account, I have asked them to tell me their gmail account and password - so they do not need to worry about leaning it. But that was for my students - you may not want to do this.

Hope this helps

Hi,

I plan to run App Inventor and Android SDK (just placing controls on the emulator and getting them to work).
I am using Windows. You will strugle to get App Inventor to work with more complicated tasks that some students will want to do.

App Inventor is a great introduction to mobile apps.

To do iphone apps , I have only seen Flashbuilder do this on Windows but I think there is some others. In the future you will probably see products that easily convert from one platform to another.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

I like the look of flash builder.
Is there a good source of documents and tutorials that can be assembled and maybe a scope or sequence.
Would like to look at a unit for next year once we have got the iPad implementation sorted.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Andrew,

I am planning to run an android mobile apps programming unit next term with my Year 10 class.

I haven't got anything up and running yet.

I did the workshop that Swinburne are offering at the moment last year.
Like most things if you don't use it straight away, you forget (like I have).

I'm hoping to look for those resources again. I know it was all on the Georgia Tech website.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course. We use a program that connects to an emulator.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Emma
We have been trying to find the App Inventor but it appears to be unaccessible. Do you know where we might be able to find it?

Cheers

Hi Gordon,

I have access to the App Inventor via Google - you do need a Google account which is not too much of a problem for many of the students.
http://appinventor.mit.edu/

>From here you need to have a Gmail account. For students who don't want to keep the Gmail account, I have asked them to tell me their gmail account and password - so they do not need to worry about leaning it. But that was for my students - you may not want to do this.

Hope this helps

Hi,

I plan to run App Inventor and Android SDK (just placing controls on the emulator and getting them to work).
I am using Windows. You will strugle to get App Inventor to work with more complicated tasks that some students will want to do.

App Inventor is a great introduction to mobile apps.

To do iphone apps , I have only seen Flashbuilder do this on Windows but I think there is some others. In the future you will probably see products that easily convert from one platform to another.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

Sincerely,
Ziad Baoudi,

I like the look of flash builder.
Is there a good source of documents and tutorials that can be assembled and maybe a scope or sequence.
Would like to look at a unit for next year once we have got the iPad implementation sorted.

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

Whilst I haven't used it myself, iStencyl looks great for those who are
looking for a drag and drop environment to develop iOS APPs. They are
promising to support Android soon.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Andrew,

I am planning to run an android mobile apps programming unit next term with my Year 10 class.

I haven't got anything up and running yet.

I did the workshop that Swinburne are offering at the moment last year.
Like most things if you don't use it straight away, you forget (like I have).

I'm hoping to look for those resources again. I know it was all on the Georgia Tech website.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

Hi All,

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course. We use a program that connects to an emulator.

We have been trying to find the App Inventor but it appears to be unaccessible. Do you know where we might be able to find it?

Cheers

Hi All,

I am also running an APP inventor course, we are using APP Inventor set up and hosted by Google and MIT its not too bad runs quite well - the course is in the 2nd year now and plenty of students have chosen it, however many did not realise it was not an APPLE APP course. We use a program that connects to an emulator.

Hi,



Is anyone running a mobile programming course?



I have 2 in the pipeline with a drag and drop mobile phone software that connects to an emulator or a phone, and the eclipse/android SDK. This took days to work out the setup.

Hi Gordon,

I have access to the App Inventor via Google - you do need a Google account which is not too much of a problem for many of the students.
http://appinventor.mit.edu/

>From here you need to have a Gmail account. For students who don't want to keep the Gmail account, I have asked them to tell me their gmail account and password - so they do not need to worry about leaning it. But that was for my students - you may not want to do this.

Hope this helps

Hi,

I plan to run App Inventor and Android SDK (just placing controls on the emulator and getting them to work).
I am using Windows. You will strugle to get App Inventor to work with more complicated tasks that some students will want to do.

App Inventor is a great introduction to mobile apps.

To do iphone apps , I have only seen Flashbuilder do this on Windows but I think there is some others. In the future you will probably see products that easily convert from one platform to another.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming
framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built
for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support
tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to
allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially
games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote
the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks
a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.

I like the look of flash builder.
Is there a good source of documents and tutorials that can be assembled and maybe a scope or sequence.
Would like to look at a unit for next year once we have got the iPad implementation sorted.

Whilst I haven't used it myself, iStencyl looks great for those who are
looking for a drag and drop environment to develop iOS APPs. They are
promising to support Android soon.
Take a look here: http://www.stencyl.com/istencyl/

Hi Folks,

Yes there are products that allow cross compiling . We are working on these at present and hope to run some PDs towards the middle of the year for teachers.
I will keep you posted.

Hi,

I plan to run App Inventor and Android SDK (just placing controls on the emulator and getting them to work).
I am using Windows. You will strugle to get App Inventor to work with more complicated tasks that some students will want to do.

App Inventor is a great introduction to mobile apps.

To do iphone apps , I have only seen Flashbuilder do this on Windows but I think there is some others. In the future you will probably see products that easily convert from one platform to another.

gday Andrew.
Are you running your app stuff on a mac or pc platform? I've put off until either later term 2 or for term3 for this as a unit with my middle school group. Had some delays on our migration to Win7 and our implementation of the whole school to iPADs so the next topic will be on VB.NET .

Keep me in the loop on your APP stuff Andrew. I am presently still slowly learning the X-CODE/Objective-C stuff ...

Kent.

WE have also got android SDK/eclipse and flashbuilder.

I dont like using programming software with little help on the internet.

I am running an after-school APP club. I use Corona SDK, a programming framework that uses the Lua scripting language. The code can then be built for Android and iOS. You can also scale APPs in such a way as to support tablets, including the Kindle Fire and Nook Color. Soon, they promise to allow releases for Mac OS.
Corona SDK is not a household name but many high profile APPs, especially games, have been written in it. As an example, the APP released to promote the Lorax movie.

Stencyl seems to be a worthwhile drag and drop tool to look at, as it looks a lot like Scratch and you can release the APP for multiple platforms.
